pushmedia1: Civil war?

3.18.2007

A UK based opinion poll company ran a survey in Iraq(PDF). They found:

most Iraqi's think the situation in Iraq would get better if American troops left
most (Shias and Sunnis but not Kurds) don't want to divide up Iraq
they're about divided about whether or not the country is in a state of civil war

The most interesting statistics are in the demographic section:

about a quarter of the respondents have had a member of their family murdered in the last three years
about 60% don't have jobs, this suggests high unemployment (about 40% of Americans don't have jobs)
Most identify themselves as "Muslum" rather than "Sunni" or "Shia"

UPDATE: While it appears that Iraqi's are more in favor of the war than Americans are, its important to note that dead people can express their dissatisfaction with being dead.
